it's a dog park but if someone isn't comfortable with your
with their dog call your dog.
I agree with Martemchik.
I don't think your puppy was in the wrong. I don't think you boy was being aggressive. But this woman did. The second I realized that she was uncomfortable, I would have removed my dog and redirected.
Just because it is a dog park, does not mean that an owner should not protect their dog from something they feel is threatening to THEIR dog. What if it had been another dog constantly mounting, harassing, chasing, nipping your dog. Would you expect the owner to step in?
As for the shoving, if it had been me, and my dog was being harassed by another dog, and the other dogs owner was doing nothing, I would use physical force to get the dog away from mine. Using a leg or knee to move a dog is not the same as say, kicking. If I have to use my body to protect my dog I will. I don't have an issue correcting someone else's dog if it's being rude and inappropriate. And I don't have time to go from person to person asking them to control their dog. My job is to protect and control mine.
Being in a public place means we have to act as responsible adults. We have to take ownership of our animals and be their guardian, from other dogs and from themselves. Just because it's public does not mean a dog can be allowed to do whatever it wants at the expense of the comfort if another citizen using a public space. It's public, we should be allowed to use it as we see fit. It's not up to us to decide how someone else should use a public space.

I have to agree with martemchik. You have a large breed dog, who's breed happens to have a pretty nasty reputation in the eyes of some people. I am totally compliant with people not wanting my dog greeting/interacting with theirs. There's no point getting upset about it. Not everyone has to love your dog and his play style as much as you do - try to appreciate that some people might be intimidated.
EDIT: David Winners' post is definitely worth considering too. Great points
It has nothing to do with saying hello, or sniffing. A sniff or two are just fine. But there have been times where I've wanted to get my dog away from certain dogs at the dog park because I knew they were going to do something to anger my dog. He's friendly, and very stable, but there are things that will rile him up and get him to correct the other dog. I want to avoid those situations, so I'll try my hardest to get my dog away from the other dog. If the other owner doesn't do anything to help the situation, or just allows their dog to follow me as I am trying to put space between myself and that dog...I don't think that's right.
OP isn't going to like this, but it sounds like OP has a young dog that has no control at the dog park. It's perfectly understandable as there are times that my dog wouldn't recall because he was distracted at the dog park. A younger dog...probably could care less about what their handler has to say. OP couldn't get their dog to leave the other dog alone even though there were plenty of other dogs to play with. Maybe its OP and her dog that shouldn't go to the dog park?
|vrosa, i frequent our dog park often and know most of the regulars. sounds to me like that woman and her dog shouldn't have been there. no one or their dog should go to a public dog park and not expect other dogs to come up and sniff, play and other dog behavior. it is a public dog park and you don't get to think you should be left alone. imho, the op acted prudently, but next time let this person know, if don't want other dogs around her and her dog she shouldn't be there. if she touches you dog again , deal with it a little more strongly.
|David Winners
Maybe the Greyhound has a history of aggression that the owner had worked through, and she was avoiding a relapse.
Maybe the Greyhound was throwing calming signals that your dog was ignoring and the owner was protecting your dog from the Greyhound correcting it.
My Cane Corso will thrash a dog pretty soundly if it repeatedly ignores cues that he doesn't want to play. Young dogs get the puppy pass, but an older lab/doodle/whatever being a goof and ignoring his non-verbal protests to play will get thrown to the ground and pinned if he doesn't feel like playing. Few owners understand why I will step in and remove their dog from the situation, usually saying, "Buster gooberball was just trying to play! Let them play!" , but if I let it go and Lu corrects the dog, they get all upset.
Socialization doesn't mean play. It means being around other dogs and potentially interacting with them socially. Some dogs don't play well and escalate to fighting easily.
|David Taggart
|I would smile. Many people tend to associate their own relationship(s) with their pets to those which involvs human culture only. It make them easier to judge their own personal situations, you will never guess what was in this woman's head during your convrersation. Dogs are the dogs, they are much free creatures than us, only because they are mainly driven by instincys instead of principles and thoughts. "Concept" has no value to your dog, and he respects human morality not more than of an insect. The trouble with humans is - that we don't want things to go what they are, wre want them to match one of our own cliche. I'm a watcher, I don't make standars, i m looking for unusual I haven't seen before in dogs, that woman had watched - how much well the dogs' play corresponded to hert fixed cliche of dog's behaviour. Heart and soul, forgive all mentally deprived this Christmad!
Its a public park, which means the public can use it in any way they see fit. YOU want to use it to socialize, OTHERS want to use it to go for a walk with their dog in a fenced in area. They don't want their dogs to socialize, but aren't hurting anyone in the process.
It was actually YOUR dog and YOUR activity that was impeding on HER dog and HER activity. Her dog wasn't bothering/preventing your dog's socialization in any way, shape, or form. Your dog was preventing this lady from going on a nice, calm, walk with her dog. And yet somehow the lady was in the wrong?
Sounds to me like this lady's dog wasn't hurting anyone, just wanted to be left alone, but clearly enjoyed some off-leash time that the lady might not have been able to provide it otherwise due to her living situation. Why are you making the rule that all the dogs should play/socialize in the park? Why aren't the other owners/dogs allowed to do other things at that park as long as they aren't bothering you?
You are criticizing her for protecting her dog. She didn't like the way your dog was doing something, and she told you about it. I don't disagree that from your description your dog was likely doing nothing wrong...the wrong thing is trying to say that she's completely insane and off-base in the way she acted.
My dog enjoys playing by mouthing the back of other dog's necks. He has no problem throwing them onto the ground/pinning/wresting ect. Would you like it if he was doing that to your dog and I just stood there thinking it was normal play? Just told you, well...he's not growling, barking, and I see no blood...so its just play!
Think of it this way...
If this was a HUMAN park and you were there with your family having a picnic, not bothering anyone, in the middle of a large field. I showed up with my buddies and started a game of football where the center of our field was your picnic area. How would you feel? Should I just tell you that its a public park and that I can do whatever I want?
Your question was about etiquette...and etiquette says...if the other person doesn't want their dog interacting with your dog, you respect their wishes and back your dog away from theirs. It's that simple. Clearly there is enough room at that dog park for you to go to a separate area and do something else with your dog.
I think that goes back to my initial statement that this is a public dog park with 2 separate sections. This dog was in the large dog area so it is to be expected that LARGE dogs are going to play with him which was the point of my initial post. If my dog was in the small dog pen and was bothering another, then of course I would go fetch him without thinking twice because that is not his designated play area. She brought a large dog into a large dog pen, while the "Play at your own risk" sign is plastered everywhere.
This thread is going no where I see Im not trying to "win votes" or rally against the crazy dog owner at the park, I came to ask for a second opinion and I got it from several view points. But with your statements I have to disagree, that is all.

My due date is April 7th & I have a major issue with my husband wanting a Jr. This is the 1st time I ever found out what we were having before they were born. We are having a boy.
I have 2 children Mason Lee & Merissa Julia. My husband wants Jeffrey Jason Cross Jr. or Jeffrey Ralph Cross Jr. or an "M" name. I will never agree to either one of the Jeffrey's. We already have a son, I don't like the idea of Jr.'s & most importantly I don't like the name Jeffrey at all! He is the Jeffrey Jason & his Dad is Jeffrey Ralph. Ralph is his grandfathers name. If you could pick any boy "M" name, what would you choose? I want to knock his socks of with an "M" name! I loved when you chose Declan. I did bring that name up, but of course my husband shot that down because it wasn't Jeffrey or an "M". If it is any help me kids picked Toby & they actually agreed on it??!! They don't agree on anything. Of course my husband turned that down as well.
Thank you for your time
If you don't like the idea of a junior and you don't like the name Jeffrey, then that name is off the table. This does not mean that now you need to scramble to find something your husband likes better than Jeffrey. Instead it means that you and your husband now both need to work to find the name the two of you like best from the remaining candidates. Perhaps if it's very important to your husband, you might agree to use Jeffrey, Jason, or Ralph as a middle name.
(As an aside, a junior is given the same entire name as his father. So if you were going to have a junior, the child's name would be Jeffrey Jason Cross Jr. If your husband wanted instead to name his son after his father, the child's name could be Jeffrey Ralph Cross II.)
Do you agree to using an M name? If you don't, that too is off the table (or rather, is still on the table as an issue the two of you would need to decide on before you can go on to choose the name). I feel as if we've had a run recently on "one parent absolutely insisting on something the other parent doesn't want," and it's making me cranky. The decision is up to both parents, and both parents are responsible for finding the agreed-upon name. One parent may willingly choose to go along with the other parent's preference---but it isn't right or fair for one parent to make a declaration and insist the other parent submit to that declaration. If you are willing to use an M name, then we can find a good M name. If you would prefer to break the M streak, then that is fine too, and you and your husband would then both turn to the task of finding the name the two of you liked best from the entire pool of non-Jeffrey, non-M names.
If you like Declan, I suggest Malcolm. Malcolm Cross; Mason, Merissa, and Malcolm.
One of my own favorite M names is Milo. Milo Cross; Mason, Merissa, and Milo. Or Miles would be nice.
Another of my favorites is Miller. Miller Cross; Mason, Merissa, and Miller.
Miller reminds me of Meyer. Meyer Cross; Mason, Merissa, and Meyer.
Maxwell seems like a good brother name for Mason. Maxwell Cross; Mason, Merissa, and Maxwell.
The name Matthew is an enduring favorite. Matthew Cross; Mason, Merissa, and Matthew. Matthias would make it a little more unusual.
Or there's Merit/Merritt. Merritt Cross; Mason, Merissa, and Merritt.
But if you look through all the M names in the book and you don't find any you like, there are other ways to coordinate the sibling set. Mason and Merissa share not only an M but also an A and an S, so a name like Samuel would work very nicely. Samuel Cross; Mason, Merissa, and Samuel.
I've thought the names Mason and Sawyer would go together well: both surname names, and both tradesman names. Sawyer Cross; Mason, Merissa, and Sawyer.
Or something like Jacob: it repeats the number of letters and the vowel sounds of Mason, and J and M are close together in the alphabet. Jacob Cross; Mason, Merissa, and Jacob. (Jake Cross could sound like Jay Cross or Jake Ross, but neither is a negative/embarrassing mistake.)

San Diego 's Future Water Supply Choices and Trade-offs
Speaker: Mike Matherly
Description: This fast-paced and highly interactive program illustrates the most common birds in a typical Southern California garden and how to keep them there to add song, color and animation to your flowered slice of heaven. Audiences will learn their names and how to identify them. Some of the best bird photography in Southern California is the highlight of the show, along with natural history explanations of why each bird is special and why it was drawn to your home. Like an old friend, who is the most faithful bird to visit your garden each day of its life? Which birds only visit seasonally, from as far away as the Arctic and Central America? Who's the most fearless, at the top of the pecking order? Which relentless hunter uses your greenery to maximize stealth and chances for an easy meal? Most importantly, how do you attract the angels (phoebes and hummingbirds) and discourage the devils (starlings and crows)? It is an informative and entertaining glimpse at a world we often can't see because of the trees (and flowers and shrubs and ......).
Saving the Children: Curing Nature Deficit Disorder - Solving the Dilemma of America's First Nature-deprived Generation
Description: "I like to play indoors better because that's where all the electrical outlets are." -4th grader, San Diego. This is a common sentiment in the culture of America's youngest and most tech-savvy generation. The allure and demands of the electronic age, however, have cost children dearly--an estrangement from nature. Called "nature-deficit disorder," this alienation can threaten their physical and mental development and make them social misfits, chronically sick, and even shortening their lives. Kids today are indoors, on-line, and out of touch with the natural world, even the "wilds" of their own backyards.
American children spend less time outdoors than any previous generation--making them indifferent to the environmental concerns and challenges we must face in the 21st century. How did this happen? Why do scientists and researchers increasingly point to outdoor unstructured play as a remedy to childhood depression, obesity, and social seclusion? What are the cures, programs, and resources that families and community organizations can employ to reconnect kids with nature? Addressing these issues and questions, this quick-paced audience-driven presentation guides and inspires participants to action, not only to change children's lifestyles, but save our legacy of environmental stewardship as well. There's no time to lose. Kids are growing into adulthood as you read this, with different values, perceptions, and priorities. In extolling his preference for the excitement and delights of a San Francisco shopping mall, a 15-year old recently said, "In Yosemite, the only thing you look at is trees, grass, and sky." He can vote in three years.
Description: A cautionary tale of how America lost its most iconic birds, their role in U.S. history, and recent theories on why they disappeared. At the start of the 19th century, one in every four birds in North America was a passenger pigeon; parakeets filled forests and fields from Florida to Wisconsin. Within a single generation, they were gone. A great remorse swept the nation when it was realized that individual actions had collectively erased a living part of the American landscape. It is no coincidence that the founding of the national parks and conservation movement occurred during the demise of our most visible birds.
Masters of the Wind: San Diego Seabirds - The Amazing and Curious World of Our Far Ocean Flyers
Description: Just over the western horizon is an avian world that few San Diegans ever see: the realm of pelagic birds. Designed for a life in the far ocean, these flyers do not touch land for years, travel immense distances, and even circumnavigate the globe. Wave-skimming shearwaters, abyss-diving auklets, and storm-tossed albatrosses who glide for days without a single wing beat, are just a few of the radically different-looking bird families that thrive in that far-flung Spartan world. Switching hemispheres in search of the endless summer, diving hundreds of feet below the surface, out-swimming their fish prey, and walking on water are but a few of their adaptive advantages. Southern California waters are host to tens of millions of these birds annually, more than any other region in the Pacific Ocean north of the Equator. Why so many? Why here? How do pelagic birds go years without fresh water? And most importantly, what are their conservation prospects in the 21 st century as global warming changes the very ocean they depend on?
Speaker: Jim Peugh
Description: A sobering look at the effects of urban development on one of the world's most diverse ecosystems and how it still might be saved. Includes an explanation of the most pressing conservation issues confronting Southern California, their causes, impacts, and remedies as they affect the quality of life in San Diego. Of the world's 25 most endangered biodiversity zones, such as the Galapagos Islands and Amazon rainforest, only one is in North America: yes, our state and particularly its southernmost region. San Diego County alone has the dubious distinction of having more endangered species than any other county in the United States. How did it all come to this? A tripling of population in the last 40 years and massive suburbanization has filled in wetlands and scraped away the original vegetation and animals that once lived along our coast--more than half of California 's people now live along its southwestern ocean edge on just 9% of the state's land. Relentless urban development, and its pressure on natural resources, is now impacting distant ecosystems such as the Salton Sea, an impending disaster itself with continental consequences. Threats to remaining open space in urban canyons and planning policy decisions that imperil wildlife and birds in particular, such as urban sprawl, poorly thought out wildlife prevention strategies, and thoughtless placement of transmission lines and wind turbines, will also be reviewed. How can we better live in harmony with the remaining wild places and wildlife of our region? What are the planning, conservation, and restoration opportunities that remain? How might community service groups and the citizens of tomorrow, our children, become more involved in changing the fortunes of our local natural world?
Healthy Backyard Habitat: The Native Plant Garden Cultivating a Natural World for Birds and Butterflies
Speaker: Mel Hinton
Description: Tired of that sterile, motel landscape around your home? Bring life and song to your yard and garden by using native plants and a wildlife friendly design. This presentation demonstrates how you can make your California garden become a slice of our natural landscape that requires minimal maintenance, conserves water and attracts wildlife.
The key lies in having the right mix of native plants coupled with the three things all birds need: food, water and shelter. By using native plants that are adapted to our climate you will have fewer insect and disease problems than with ornamentals and rarely will soil supplements be needed. Best of all, birds and butterflies are naturally drawn to these plants. This PowerPoint program, along with several informational handouts, will get you started on planning your own native plant garden - one that benefits both people and wildlife.
Speaker: Dr. Phillip Pryde
Description: This illustrates the possible effects of global climate change for the San Diego region, and the likely implications for our county's natural environment and regional economy. Significant changes will be caused by the gradual increase in ocean levels, such as the inundation of low-lying coastal portions, accelerated loss of beach sand, and the undercutting of bluffs and bluff-top structures. Rising sea level will also drown portions of local estuaries, thereby adversely affecting species that utilize coastal salt marshes, such as the Clapper Rail.
Because most models of climate change suggest a drier Southwest, concerns for a reliable water supply will become paramount. San Diego is at the end of the water delivery pipeline from our principal sources in the Colorado River basin and northern California . Competition for dwindling supplies between urban and rural users and alternative sources of water re-use, conservation, and desalinization will be discussed.
Finally, increasing warmth and aridity will affect the plant life and wildlife in all regional ecosystems, and wildfire potential will increase. In addition to loss of salt marshes, we may also lose our mountain conifer forests, already stressed by drought, bark beetles, and fire. Importantly for those creatures that feed in those plant communities, bird migration patterns and wintering locations will be affected, perhaps adversely, endangering the food supply for breeding birds.
Alternative Energy and the Environment: Choices and Crunch-time - Advantages and Drawbacks to Renewable Sources
Description: A summary of the mechanics, advantages, and problems of alternative energy sources is presented and illustrated in layperson terms. Solar energy is emphasized, for both heating and electrical applications, such as passive heating, photovoltaic, and heat-cycle systems.
One of the fastest growing forms of renewable energy, wind farms, will be reviewed, including its effects on bird and bat mortality. The positives and negatives of geothermal energy development in northern California and in Imperial County are analyzed. While hydroelectricity is controversial because of its adverse effects on rivers and fisheries, there are other types of hydro development that are less damaging to the environment. Finally, the oceans hold several potential methodologies for producing electrical energy, such as tidal power, wave energy, and thermal gradients; each is briefly described, and the reasons why wave energy might be the most promising are discussed. Current interest and development of non-conventional possibilities such as biofuels, oil shale, and nuclear fusion will receive attention.
Description: When Mark Twain famously said "Whiskey's for drinking, water's for fighting", he was being both humorous and prophetic. The American Southwest is scenic and appealing, but also mostly arid. Its inhabitants have always lived on the brink of water shortages. A few thousand Anasazi probably learned this the hard way. Many millions of contemporary Californians most likely are going to, also.
Why do water officials predict we will continually need water rationing? Doesn't San Diego have its own source? Will we have enough water in the future? How big a factor will climate change be? What possible new sources of water are available? What are the downsides to developing those new sources? What can we as individuals do?
In this illustrated presentation, you will get a wealth of information about what's happening in Southern California with this most essential of all our natural resources. You will see where our water comes from, what has changed in recent years, the present realities that the region faces, and the possible future sources for our domestic and agricultural water supplies.

I'm sorry. I left in early September because of the site-change, and I'm still barely getting on here. In that time, I've completely forgotten about my first group I made on here, NFL Nation. In fact, i was gone on this group's birthday. There's a poll saying that we're either dead or dead, posts in the Locker Talk telling this group to rest in peace, and it's because I was gone. Really, it's because of the site change and me. The site got a new layout right on the back-end of our third throwdown tournament. I left, and a few contestants may have too. I'm saying right now that they all will share the championship. I'm also here to say that this group is back.
How should we do this? NFL Nation TD Tourney #4? Mass blogging? Live blogs? I want you guys to decide what this group will do to get rolling again, because hey, you're the ones that will keep it alive with me. Tell me what you want below.

What else is new for the dems they blame Bush for everything.
What else is new for the dems they blame Bush for everything.
Bob Gutermuth
Canvasback Chesapeakes
Yet another politician that learned NOTHING from Nixon.
Nancy Pelosi is a liar!
The Libertarian Party believes that all persons are entitled to keep the fruits of their labor. A call for the repeal of the income tax, abolishment of the Internal Revenue Service and all federal programs and services not required under the U.S. Constitution. We support the passage of a "Balanced Budget Amendment" to the U.S. Constitution, provided that the budget is balanced exclusively by cutting expenditures, and not by raising taxes. LP.org
NP says that in the 2002 meeting that she attended the agency described the procedure, but she didn't understand that it would be (or was being) used. She is either a complete idiot, lying beyond comprehension, or totally incompetent if she didn't understand the nature of the briefing.
More briefings were held, that by her own account, she did not attend. If that is true, why wasn't she in attendance? Wasn't it a part of her job and duty?
She is now accusing the CIA of lying to her. My personal experience in briefing congressmen and staffers tells me that this is highly unlikely. Again, in my experience, EVERY effort was made to ensure factual information was relayed in a way that it could not be misunderstood or misinterpreted. Also, why in the world would the agency lie to NP when it is not being disputed that other congressional members, dems and republicans alike, were being explicitly told that waterboarding was being used in some cases?
From the article:
"Pelosi contended that Democrats did what they could to stop the use of waterboarding. The senior Democrat on the Intelligence Committee, who received the 2003 briefing on the practice, sent the CIA a formal letter of protest, she said. "
"But Pelosi defended her own lack of action on the issue, saying her focus at the time was on wresting congressional control from Republicans so her party could change course.
"No letter could change the policy. It was clear we had to change the leadership in Congress and in the White House. That was my job the Congress part," Pelosi said."
I won't comment on the statements quoted above, but I will repeat: she is the poster child for term limits.

These two pumpkins are named Geronimo and Charlie. Geronimo is the orange one and weighed in at 440 pounds. He measures 126-1/2 inches around - that's over 10 feet! The white one is named Charlie and weighs 420 pounds. She measures 122 inches around. They were raised in the back yard of Steve and Jennifer Heeren in Allison - with lots of onlookers helping out throughout the growing season. On an average day they gained 3 inches in circumference and 10 - 25 pounds.
I got started raising giant pumpkins last year - raising a 340-pounder named Warren - whose seed I got from the Iowa State Fair in 2009. Geronimo and Charlie were raised from the seed from Warren, along with about 40 other people I shared seed with. It's been a fun 'community' project.

China took another step towards financial liberalization on Friday, when the nation's central bank scrapped the floor on lending rates for commercial banks, essentially freeing lenders to issue loans as cheaply as they wished.
Authorities hope the move would spur competition among lenders, and allow borrowers access to cheaper money at a time when economic growth is slowing.
While the move reflects the government's determination to push ahead with reforms in the sector, economists say the practical impact on rates would be minimal.
The reason, quite simply, is that Chinese banks don't compete on loan pricing. Majority of the loans in China have been made above the benchmark rate of 6 percent, despite the previous policy which allows lenders to offer loans at up to a 30 percent discount from the benchmark rate.
(Read More: China liberalizes bank lending rates in reform push)
"The scrapping of the lending rate floor will likely have little impact on bank lending rates as banks don't compete on pricing and they rarely lend at lending rate floor," wrote May Yan, head of China banks research at Barclays.
"Therefore, the real economy may not get lower funding cost, and economic growth may not benefit much from this move," Yan said.
(Read More: The long game: Why a China slowdown isn't scary)
According to research by the bank, only 12 percent of loans were priced below benchmark rates in the past decade, with 24 percent at benchmark rates and 64 percent above the benchmark rate.
"Banks have been competing rationally as they know pricing competition is going to hurt the industry and themselves. We do not expect banks to change much of their behavior after the announcement," Yan said.
Wei Yao, China economist at Societe Generale, agrees this is unlikely to have an immediate impact on the real economy.
"Although the step is of great significance, the near term impact is likely to be very limited. We know for a fact that there was barely any loan offered at the lowest permitted levels, as banks see rising cost of funding - rates on deposits, wealth management products as well as interbank borrowing," she said.
What about deposit rates?
Analysts said that interest rate reforms remain incomplete if the central bank does not remove the ceiling on deposit rates, which are currently capped at 110 percent of the benchmark.
"The fact that the central bank announced these reforms on Friday without any change to the band on deposit interest rates may indicate that we will have to wait a bit longer for further deposit interest rate reform," said Mike Werner, banking analyst at Sanford C. Bernstein.
(Read More: China to keep credit growth steady: Central bank)
In the Q&A session that followed the announcement, the People's Bank of China (PBOC) said removing the ceiling on deposit rates is "most risky" as it would lead to more negative market sentiment on Chinese banks given the potential margin squeeze and could add more stress on the banking system, the bank said.
Shares of Chinese banking stocks edged lower on Monday, with major lenders including ICBC, Bank of China, and China Construction Bank falling between 0.4-1 percent in early trade.
Limited impact on bank earnings
For now, however, analysts believe the PBOC's latest move to liberalize lending rates will have minimal impact on bank earnings.
"There is absolutely no change in our viewpoint or earnings forecast for the banks as a result of the reforms. We expect to see no impact on the banks' pricing of loans despite the removal of the floor on lending interest rates," Werner of Sanford C. Bernstein said.
(Read More: China cash rates ease further as central bank stays out of market)
"We view the fact that the banks are pricing loans based on internal risk-based pricing mechanisms and not at the PBOC-set floors to be positive as it shows that the banks are increasingly motivated by profitability in their pricing decisions, and less by government influence," he added.

You know you're a Kris fan if…
Kris has been talking a lot about his fans in recent interviews and whether you consider yourself a "Krinja", a "Krispie" ("Krispy"?), or a fan name of your choosing, there are some things a lot of us have in common. Little Pawns member Barb (BBLamb2000) suggested we ask ourselves what these things are. Perhaps they are inspirational, maybe they're funny... whatever they are, we want to hear your thoughts!
Here are some suggestions to get you started:
You know you're a Kris fan if… you think nothing of driving multiple hours at unsociable hours of the day or night to attend a Kris concert.
You know you're a Kris fan if… you've made a pilgrimage to Stoby's for the express purpose of trying their cheese dip.
You know you're a Kris fan if… you've deliberately added to your plaid collection because you know there's a show coming soon and you'll need to be properly attired.
And for any Jeff Foxworthy fans out there… feel free to rephrase the question in true Foxworthy style…
If you've been to six Walmarts in the last week and all the members of the electronics section now know your name without prompting…. you might be a Kris fan.
If you know there are 86,400 seconds in a day and that's alright, alright with you… you might be a Kris fan.
You get the idea! Now it's over to you.
If you have a great idea for a future Question of the Week, hit us up on twitter (@littlepawns), Facebook, or email your suggestions to: firstname.lastname@example.com
Views: 199
And adding to KIM's comment: A day without Kris is not only a day without sunshine, it's just not a day at all. <3
If you wait for Kris' tour schedule before making any concrete vacation or time off plans, and then your vacation really ends up being a trip to Arkansas to see Kris for a KA fan reunion.
If you can't go through a day without playing his album or calling up a performance on YouTube or tuning into an interview to watch him say something poignant or funny (his sense of humour cracks me up and brightens the day) or if you fly thousands of miles and then drive hours to see him, in the process almost running out of petrol up a mountain because you're thinking of getting to the concert rather than watching the petrol gauge, just making it, being lucky enough to meet him and then have your picture with him hanging on your wall!
You know you're a Kris Allen fan when you take the day off from work so that you could queue up for an autograph session that's not in 8 hours' time.
You know you are a Kris fan if you plan on changing your vacation plans because Kris is going to play a concert near you and your husband doesn't know yet that his plans are about to change.LOL
You know you are a Kris fan if you actively follow live tweet streams when concerts are happening to see all the happy, excited tweets.
You know you are a Kris Allen fan when you change your hair salon appointment to a different day so you don't miss any of the build up to his Idol performance! Nothing like flailing with Kris fans!
When you have Kris autograph your "Kris Allen Meets Mickey" shirt because it is going to be retired due to his face being all "cracked" up on the photo since you washed and wore it so many times around town and to his shows.
Kris is the first person you look up on Twitter and is the reason why you signed up for Twitter in the first place.

Seen & Heard: Maryland's Civil Rights Era in Photographs and Oral Histories
Feb. 23rd Civil Rights Photo Exhibition and Panel Discussion at MdHS
Panelists Will Include 1955 Read's Drugstore Sit-In Participant,
Black Panther Party Defense Lawyer, and Writer for TV's "The Wire".
Civil Rights Era Photos by Paul Henderson of Juanita Jackson Mitchell, Thurgood Marshall and Others
Baltimore, Maryland (January 12, 2012) – The Maryland Historical Society (MdHS) will explore the Paul Henderson Photograph Collection (ca. 1930-1960) and the McKeldin-Jackson Oral History Project (1969-1977) in a Black History Month event on February 23 from 6-8pm. There will be a panel discussion and accompanying exhibition. The panelists will discuss their personal affiliations and expertise with the civil rights struggle in Maryland in relation to the collections. Dr. Helena Hicks, one of only three surviving members of the widely publicized sit-in at Read's Drugstore in Baltimore, will reveal the impromptu nature of the 1955 protest. The event is free and open to the public. Parking is free. For further information: Jennifer Ferretti, 410-685-3750; email@example.com
Dr. Helena Hicks was a Morgan State College student in 1955. She and other black students were denied service at the Read's Drug Store in downtown Baltimore and decided to stage a sit-in, one of the earliest in America. "It was completely impromptu," says Dr. Hicks. A front-page headline in the Afro-American newspaper read, "Now serve all" after the success at Read's. Its impact sparked a firestorm of protests resulting not only in the desegregation of Read's but also the shut down of the White Coffee Pot restaurant chain where patrons refused to cross picket lines. "We led the way," says Dr. Hicks, "and it was a direct result of Lillie Carroll [Jackson]. She had put into us as youngsters that you had to stand up, you were equal, and you had to make the rest of the world understand and respect that. Don't let anyone take freedom away from you."
Dr. Skipp Sanders, the Interim Director of the Reginald F. Lewis Museum of African American History and Culture, will introduce the panel and John Gartrell, the Archivist at the Afro-American Newspapers Archives and Research Center, will moderate.
Dr. Hicks, currently a commissioner of the Commission for Historical and Architectural Preservation (CHAP), will be joined by Larry Gibson, Professor of Law at University of Maryland; Dr. Barry Lanman, Professor and Director of the Martha Ross Center for Oral History at University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) and initial interviewer in the McKeldin-Jackson Oral History Project; Dr. Michelle Scott, an associate professor at UMBC; and William F. Zorzi, former reporter and editor for nearly twenty years at The Baltimore Sun newspaper and co-writer for the HBO series "The Wire".
Paul Henderson (1899-1966) was an African American photographer who worked in Baltimore from the 1930s to 1960s. Much of his career was spent at the Afro-American newspaper. Henderson documented both significant events and every day life in Baltimore's African American communities, leaving behind a collection of over 6,000 photographs never seen in its entirety. A selection of Henderson's photography will be on display outside of the H. Furlong Baldwin Library.
Henderson captured images of Paul Robeson, concert singer, protesting the Jim Crow admissions policy at Baltimore's Ford Theatre, a protest that lasted seven years. He photographed significant leaders such as Juanita Jackson Mitchell, the first African American woman to practice law in the state of Maryland and Thurgood Marshall, council to the NAACP before becoming the first African American Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. Morgan State College (now University), vocational schools, church and civic organizations are also well represented in the collection.
The McKeldin-Jackson Oral History Project is an inquiry into the civil rights movement in Maryland during the mid 20th century focusing on the roles played by two Maryland leaders, Governor Theodore McKeldin and Dr. Lillie Carroll Jackson. From 1974 through 1977, volunteers conducted eighty-five interviews with civil rights activists and leaders, as well as those who opposed the movement. Interviewees discuss their involvement with the NAACP, Maryland politics, law, education, and their relationship with Governor McKeldin and Dr. Jackson.
Theodore R. McKeldin was Mayor of Baltimore (1943-1947, 1963-1967), Governor of Maryland (1951-1959) and an advocate for civil rights. McKeldin was born in Baltimore, MD in 1900 and graduated from Baltimore City College. He earned his law degree from the University of Maryland School of Law in 1925. McKeldin was an ardent supporter of civil rights and was a recipient of the Sidney Hollander Award, an award given to those who have worked diligently towards equal rights for all Americans. He was re-elected as Mayor of Baltimore in 1963 and returned to public service with a focus on urban renewal and the Baltimore Inner Harbor until his death in 1974.
Dr. Lillie Carroll Jackson was a pioneering civil rights leader beginning in the 1930s and an organizer of the Baltimore Branch of the NAACP. Jackson was also born in Baltimore, MD in 1889. She believed in non-violent resistance to racial segregation. Her daughter, Jauanita Jackson Mitchell, became the first African American woman to practice law in Maryland. Her son-in-law, Clarence M. Mitchell, Jr., was a lobbyist for the NAACP for nearly 30 years. She sponsored the Baltimore City-Wide Young People's Forum, founded by Juanita Jackson Mitchell, which conducted a campaign to end segregation. The campaign encouraged African American residents of Baltimore to only shop where they could work. She became president of the Baltimore branch of the NAACP in 1935, a position she held until 1970. In 1942, Jackson organized a movement to encourage black residents to register to vote. Jackson was inducted into the Maryland Women's Hall of Fame in 1986.
Paired with the Paul Henderson Photograph Collection, the McKeldin-Jackson Oral History Project provides context and feeling for an important part of the American story. Together, these collections recreate an era. For more information on the Paul Henderson Photograph Collection and McKeldin-Jackson Oral History Project visit: http://mdhsseenheard.wordpress.com
Larry Gibson, raised in Baltimore, attended Howard University in Washington, D.C. from 1960-1964 where he was student body president and Chairperson of D.C. Students for Civil Rights. His long career as a civil rights attorney, professor of law, and political advisor includes defending the Black Panther Party (1971), becoming University of Virginia's first black law professor, and serving as the Maryland State Chairman of the Clinton/Gore presidential campaign. Most recently, he has traveled internationally serving as an advisor to Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, president of Liberia and Africa's first democratically elected female president.
Dr. Barry Lanman was one of the original interviewers for the McKeldin-Jackson Oral History Project. Among his notable interviews were James Hepbron, Police Commissioner of Baltimore in the 1950s; Millard Tawes, Governor of Maryland; David W. Zimmerman, Former Deputy Superintendent of the State Department of Education; and Governor McKeldin's son, Theodore R. McKeldin Jr. Lanman received his doctorate from Temple University, served as the first chair of the Oral History Association's Committee on Education and is a founder and past-president of Oral History in the Mid-Atlantic region.
Dr. Michelle Scott is an associate professor at UMBC whose work specializes in the study of race and ethnicity in the American experience, with emphasis on African American history, black musical culture, and women's studies. Dr. Scott has contributed to the Martin Luther King Jr. Papers Project, volumes 2-4, and the forthcoming Columbia Guide to African American history from 1939 to the present.
William F. Zorzi was a reporter and editor at The Sun of Baltimore for nearly 20 years before leaving the newspaper to write for television in 2002. Zorzi, a Baltimore native, wrote for the last three seasons of "The Wire" television program on Home Box Office (HBO) and also acted in the series, portraying an ill-tempered reporter named Bill Zorzi in a fictional Sun newsroom. He and partner David Simon are now developing a miniseries for HBO about the volatile events surrounding a federal public housing desegregation case in Yonkers, NY, in the 1980s and 1990s. The two also are at work on a book about the rise of the drug culture in Baltimore, using Pennsylvania Avenue and its habitués as the vehicles to tell the story.
The Maryland Historical Society was founded in 1844 and is the largest museum and library dedicated to the history of Maryland. Occupying an entire city block in the Mount Vernon district of Baltimore, the Society's mission is to "collect, preserve, and interpret the objects and materials that reflect Maryland's diverse cultural heritage." The Society is home to the original manuscript of the Star-Spangled Banner and publishes a quarterly titled Maryland Historical Magazine. More information about the Maryland Historical Society can be found online at http://www.mdhs.org

Comments On Jul 19, 2012:Scott is the only brand I've ever worn. I've been running 89/No-Sweat/Xi goggles for years, mainly because they all use the same lens, and I have about 50 different lenses for them. The Hustle goggles were on sale, so I had to try them. They fit a little better, and visibilty is as good or actually a little better. Time to buy some vented lenses for these, so they can be my winter goggles too!

An anonymous donor is giving homeless pets and potential adopters something extra to be thankful for this Thanksgiving.
Starting Nov. 13 and until Nov. 17, all standard adoption fees will be paid for by the benefactor, making pet adoption from Animal Control free for approved adopters.
According to a release from the Anne Arundel County Police Department, it is the goal of the donor and the shelter to increase awareness about the thousands of adoptable animals searching for homes at Anne Arundel County Animal Control each year. The organization would also like to increase the number of animals adopted from the shelter.
All adopters will still need to pass the screening process at Anne Arundel County Animal Control before taking home a new pet.
Anne Arundel Animal Control is located at 411 Maxwell Frye Rd. in Millersville. They are open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday; 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Wednesday; and 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Saturday.

A Loft Kitchen (with Concrete Counters!)
Kitchen Spotlight
Doub and John's Philadelphia loft makes the most of its industrial roots. (It used to be a greasy working garage.) Stainless steel appliances, metal overhead lighting, plywood walls, and poured concrete kitchen counters maintain the raw aesthetic of the space, but the unusual choice to pair that with traditional chairs around the dining table softens the space just enough to keep it from feeling too cold and expansive.

Wow. I think this is just gorgeous. The light, the wood, the concrete... swooooon.

Undead and Undermined
MaryJanice Davidson - Author
- eBook - ePub eBook: $7.99
There's no guarantee in life.
Or for that matter, death…
Vampire queen Betsy Taylor has awoken in a Chicago morgue, naked as a corpse. Her last memory is reconciling with her husband, Eric Sinclair, after a time-traveling field trip to hell (literally) with her sister, Laura. Now, she's Jane Doe #291, wrapped in plastic with a toe tag. Betsy can't help but wonder, what in hell happened?
For starters, she and Laura didn't time-travel alone. What followed them had a wicked agenda: to kill Betsy in a time when she was young and vulnerable and end her future reign as queen. But it's not just Betsy's future that's taken an unexpected detour. Everyone in her circle, alive or undead, is feeling the chill. Betsy can't let the unthinkable happen. It would be a cold day in hell if she did.
Dear Reader,
This is not the last Betsy book!
I don't normally start promotion for the current book by talking about the next one. But I just chugged a Coke to chase down a bunch of Tootsie Rolls, and I'm thrillin' so high on my sugar jones, I can't remember anything about Undermined .
Okay, that's not true. What is true is that you've driven me to it. This is just so typical of you, too. After all the things I've done for you! After all the books I've written for you even though I love writing more than I love gravy and would have done it anyway, you! Oh, sure, I've got a dream job and am paid to do what I would do for free because I'm incredibly lucky. Naturally you're gonna bring that up. (Memo to me: prevent editor from reading this page. Further memo to me: soothe agent after he has what is euphemistically called "a cardiac event"when he reads this page and realizes my editor has read this page.)
Now where…oh, right. Writing for free. No, wait…that's not it. Undead and Undermined is not the last Betsy book…that's where I was. And a good thing, too. Because it's not.
Longtime fans of the Betsy books know by now that something unpleasant happened at the end of the last one, Undead and Unfinished. (Readers new to the series should fret not; I try to explain the goings-on in the past books so newbies aren't entirely lost. Usually I'm not on a sugar high when I do this.) This brought me a torrent of reader mail, some of which was even positive. I didn't explain at the time that Unfinished was not the end of the series, and that was my fault. You were viciously blindsided! I, um, sort of thought the title was self-explanatory but in this, as in when I tried to make a hat out of sugar cubes and then went for a walk in a crow-infested cornfield, I was terribly terribly wrong.
Unfinished wasn't the end of the series. Neither is Undermined. The good news: you'll have more books to hate! (See? See the things I do for you?) The bad news: the Betsy books are a series. So, pretty deliberately, I try not to tie everything up at the end of each book. I leave things untied. I leave things so untied that they could flap in the wind, like shoelaces. Oooh, that was a good metaphor. Or was it a simile? Whichever it was, I'm on board.
Anyway! Although many things are resolved in this book, there are still a few shoelaces that have to be…yeah, I've had about enough of that metaphor. Or simile. Either way: I'm out!
I can break the bad news down for you into a couple of good chunks, though. Yes, some things are left unresolved in Undermined but will absolutely be resolved in Unstable. The good news is, I'm beyond a Disney girl. I think the Disney endings aren't happy enough. (I also think they have a huge hate-on for moms, but that's a topic for another day. Oh, Walt Disney, what did that woman do to you?) So things will, eventually, be worked out to my satisfaction. And maybe even yours! But mostly mine.
To take a break from the sarcasm slush above, I will in all seriousness say you readers have changed my life. When the first book in the series, Undead and Unwed, came out, I was working 50 hours a week as an office manager and squeezing in chapters between work and kids and work. Eleven Betsy books later, writing is my full-time job. And being a freelance writer is even more awesome than I ever, ever dreamed. It's a lot like having a job as a gravy tester. Even if you're testing scorched gravy…dude! It's gravy!
To put it another way: I didn't spend eleven books winning you guys over just to screw you in the end. How could I? Thanks to you guys, I'm a gravy tester! I mean, freelance writer.
So hop on board the (gravy) train (yeah, that's enough about gravy, I think) and you'll see what you'll see. Who knows? You might like the new scenery. That's my hope, anyway. And if you don't, my hope is that you'll let me know. I truly do love hearing from you guys either way. No, really. No. Really!
As always, I'm grateful for your time and attention. Now I gotta go. I'm weirdly thirsty for gravy, of all things.
